Old Hotel with much to improve. For example, carpets everywhere are stained and frankly disgusting and displeasing, especially in the rooms themselves. The wallpaper held a hoard of dust and the headboards of the beds where disgustingly stained too. The pillows smelt so strongly of hair grease and were so gross.

This hotel is one of the best if not, the best that we've stayed in when vacationing in KK. Except for the water problems that KK is experiencing currently, it didn't stop the hotel from giving the best services.
